Ever since the vaccination drive began in the couuntry, the Vaccine politics has been raging in the country.

A lot of questions have been raised by the opposition leaders.

Even today after PM Modi took the vaccine, he encouraged everyone who is eligible to come forward and take the jab.

But the opposition has not spared him.

Congress leader Adhir Ranjan Chowdhury drew a link to the Assam, Kerala and Puducherry elections to the PM’s gesture.

Chowdhury said that had PM Modi carried Rishi Aurobindo’s photo and Geetanjali with him, all five poll-bound states would have been covered.

Well after he Prime Minister wore a gamosa from Assam, while nurses from Kerala and Puducherry administered the Covaxin shot, many couldn't overlook the connection to the elections.
